Carrabba's Cavatappi Amatriciana (Side Dish Pasta) image

This is an approximate verision of Carrabba's. This is served in the restaurant as a side dish but would be just fine as a main dish when pancetta is added in. Cavatappi pasta is a short tubed corkscrew or S-shaped pasta. It can be hard to find but I was able to find it called "Twists" by the pasta brand DaVinci (blue bag).

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out a bit bland. I'll have to try it again.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. It was still very good.

I'm not a big fan of pancetta, so I used bacon instead. It was still really good.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce turned out a little too thick. Next time I'll add a little more liquid.

This pasta dish was so easy to make and it tasted delicious. I used penne pasta instead of cavatappi and it worked out great.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a hit. The combination of flavors is amazing. I like to use a mix of different cheeses, such as Parmesan, Asiago, and Romano.

This recipe is a winner! The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I added a little extra garlic and red pepper flakes to give it a bit of a kick. My family loved it.
